REMOVE THE SUGAR TAX And The People Should No Longer Pay Tribute
Brion W. Hout argues against any sugar duties, calling sugar a universally consumed staple taxed by a tariff. He cites the sugar trust's lobbying, refines cost comparisons, and asserts no duty on refined sugar is needed to cover refining costs or labor, warning such a levy would keep a monopoly price and extract about a million dollars yearly from consumers.

Tariff Debates Amid Potteries Wage Clashes
A 7000 to 8000 Trenton and Liverpool potters walk out Feb 19 demanding wage cuts between 10 and 20 percent with a further 20 percent if the Wilson tariff bill passes. Manufacturers claim high profits and argue tariff effects shift benefits to owners, while workers cite prior wage cuts under tariff changes. The dispute echoes historic fights, with unions denying that tariffs force wage reductions and urging prompt Senate action.
